1964 Map of York Haven

About this map

Brunner Island and Haldeman Island dominate the Susquehanna River as it passes through the heart of this mid-1960s industrial and agricultural landscape. The river is a center of activity, from the powerplant and substation at Wago Junction to the turbulent waters of Conewago Falls and Haldeman Riffles. Inland, the boroughs of Mount Wolf and Manchester show significant residential development near the Pennsylvania Railroad line. Genealogists will find numerous family landmarks including Goods Cem, Haldeman Cem, and Brenneman Cem. The presence of the Codorus Furnace near the mouth of Codorus Creek points to the area's deep industrial roots, while the Hellam Hills and Schulls Rock define the eastern terrain above the river valley.
